+# Implementation Tasks
+
+## 1. Test Isolation
+- [x] 1.1 Create temp fixture roots per suite (openspec/changes, openspec/specs)
+- [x] 1.2 Use process.chdir to temp root within tests
+- [x] 1.3 Restore original cwd and clean temp dirs after each
+
+## 2. Deterministic Discovery
+- [x] 2.1 Implement getActiveChangeIds(root?) to only include dirs with proposal.md
+- [x] 2.2 Implement getSpecIds(root?) to only include dirs with spec.md
+- [x] 2.3 Return sorted results to avoid fs.readdir ordering variance
+
+## 3. Command Integration
+- [x] 3.1 Ensure change/show/validate rely on cwd and discovery helpers
+- [x] 3.2 Keep runtime behavior unchanged for end users
+
+## 4. Validation
+- [x] 4.1 Convert affected command tests (show, spec, validate, change) to isolated fixtures
+- [x] 4.2 Verify tests pass consistently across environments
+- [x] 4.3 Confirm no reads from real repo state during tests
+
+## 5. Optional (Not Needed Now)
+- [x] 5.1 Add optional root param to discovery helpers (default process.cwd())
+- [ ] 5.2 Consider threading root through command constructors if ever required
